Everybody follow me so I won't feel so bad about having a mismatched front end. Oh well, it doesn't look too terribly bad, the paint on the black pieces is pretty nice. Hey at least my car is symmetrical now (black fenders on both sides, and new OEM Stanley sidemarkers on both sides).

For those who don't remember, this is the front end I installed after my wreck, I was running around w/ one black fender and one green fender for awhile: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=722393

looking good

 

The last pic looked neat.
But seriously, what's the reason behind this.

 

buy a bunch of used painted jdm parts?

Because its going to be the next "thing" since Rota's....

 

Sorry I guess you didn't see my last thread, I edited my post above to include the link: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=722393

I had installed this 2000 front end after wrecking my car, but I only installed one black fender at the time. Now I have both fenders and new sidemarkers on both sides. I can't afford to get it painted until the summer, but at least it looks a little better now.

Nothing JDM here.

I just said "starting a new trend" in the title as a joke. You see all these people with mismatched black unpainted carbon fiber hoods, and sometimes even fenders and front lips... well my car has a matching metal hood, but with a black bumper and fenders.

 

I started that trend quite a while ago

 

Hey, at least its not primered. Or a nasty wing.

 

It's like the opposite of having an unpainted CF hood .

 

keep it black! it look better.. i love it!

 

my roommates g/f actually saw me going the other way on the interstate last Friday, and asked my roommate if I had put a nose mask on my car. I'm surprised she recognized my car.

 

Not bad

 

Nice color schme.

 

oh god, lol

Looking good Patrick, you have inspired me to do the 98+ front end. Looks great. Waiting to see pics of it BG-33P.

 

at least it looks better then your old front

would it be possible to photoshop the front end on this one to match the rest of the car?

looks different...

 

looks like you have a cf bumper and fenders...then a stock hood.

 

the front end looks very good with the car patrick. Its soo much cleaner then the 94-97 ones

 

It actually looks kind of mean from the front. It'll look dope when it's all matched up though. BTW, what kind of headlights are you running?

since when were 98+ USDM frontends = JDM?

i've always loved your car... now its even sexier
keep up the good work y0

 

its actually not as bad as those people with lets say a red car rolling around with a white unpainted kit

 

After my car was in a hit and run.... nothing like a DIY front end paint job



After it was painted, but car looks much different now

Don't paint it. Leave it as is.
